What it would have done
Summary by the , the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.
Senior citizen tax credit This bill creates a refundable income tax credit equal to the amount of the property taxes paid on the principal dwelling of an individual who is at least 65 years of age that exceeds the amount of the property taxes paid on the individual’s principal dwelling in the previous year. An individual who claims a credit under the bill may not claim the school property tax credit, the veterans and surviving spouses property tax credit, the farmland preservation credit, or the homestead credit.
Because the credit is refundable, if the amount of the claim for which a claimant is eligible exceeds the claimant’s tax liability, the difference will be paid to the claimant by check.
